gizmodo.com Passant Rabie 2026-01-16 21:30:51

Elon Musk’s obsession with colonizing Mars is polluting Earth. As SpaceX seeks to ramp up its launches of Starship, it’s also expanding its splashdown area where pieces of the rocket are allowed to litter the Pacific Ocean. A recent expansion threatens marine wildlife surrounding a sacred island in native Hawaiian tradition. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approved SpaceX’s request to rain down debris in the waters surrounding Mokumanamana, an uninhabited island in Northwestern Hawaii

Faraday Future is back with another wild EV that probably will never get made

theverge.com Peter Nelson 2026-01-16 21:28:41

Ask anyone who’s familiar with EV startups what Faraday Future is, and words like vaporware or severely delayed might come to mind. That’s because, in the brand’s 11-year existence, it has seemingly overpromised and under-delivered on nearly everything it has ever announced. As reported by Autoweek, it has sold less than 20 of its luxury FF 91 full-size EVs since it debuted two years ago — mostly to investors and celebrity influencers. Last week, Faraday revealed its latest model, the FX Super

ExpressVPN bug leaked user IPs in Remote Desktop sessions

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2026-01-17 11:06:08

ExpressVPN has fixed a flaw in its Windows client that caused Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) traffic to bypass the virtual private network (VPN) tunnel, exposing the users' real IP addresses. One of the key premises of a VPN is masking a user's IP address, allowing users to stay anonymous online, and in some cases, bypass censorship. Failing to do so is a severe technical failure for a VPN product. ExpressVPN is a leading VPN service provider, consistently rated among the top VPN services, and
